Technical Specifications

The S636CY-4R7M=P3 inductor offers an inductance of 4.7µH (microhenries), typically with a tolerance range of approximately ±10% or ±20%. It has a low DC resistance (DCR) to minimize power dissipation. The rated current is a crucial specification indicating the maximum current the inductor can handle without significant performance degradation. It typically operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C or higher, depending on application-specific requirements. The self-resonant frequency (SRF) is also an important parameter, indicating the frequency at which the inductor's performance diminishes due to parasitic capacitance effects.

Materials: Generally consists of a ferrite core and copper windings, encapsulated in a molded resin material for protection and structural integrity.
